A unique fluffy bird in the wild West Highlands of Scotland

Month: December 2012

As the year draws to a close, Algy has been busy putting together selections of his favourite Tumblr “Adventures” from 2012. He hopes that you may enjoy looking back over some of them too.

He has divided his favourites into three groups, but they are not always so easy to categorize. For example, some of the GIF posts include poems, and vice versa.

Algy would love to know which of his 2012 Adventures you liked best, whether it is included in his own selections or not. He says please send a message to tell him which was your favourite, and he’ll send you a nice reply 🙂

Algy settled himself on a bed of last season’s wild iris leaves, beside the burn which runs round the sand dunes to the beach, but he found it hard to concentrate on his reading. The constant trickling sounds of the burn were so soothing (audio post below) …

Heavy sleet was falling outside, so Algy thought it best to open his Christmas presents indoors. He wasn’t really quite sure what all of them were for, so he consulted his wise new friend from Vancouver, who expressed a very definite opinion about the blue things. Despite his friend’s assurances, however, Algy still had some doubts …

With very special thanks to Stephanie XX
